I have had great success using Genealogy Tour for researching and revealing my family history going back to the late 1600s. The genealogy summaries provided detail narratives, maps of the area in Poland where their family were originally from, and photocopies of original records.

The research work that Karolina did for me was excellent ! I could never have done this research without her time & effort & docunents that were sent to me. My ancestor research went back to the 1800 hundreds. I would recommend this company to anyone!

I would highly recommend this company and consider them quite affordable. Having a native speaker and driver who could orchestrate the day was invaluable. I am looking forward to a return trip to Poland to see my cousins again and to explore the Slovakian side of my family as well.

“Genealogy Tour does a great job connecting to these learnings for me and I like connecting with the heritage of the Country. The museums in Poland are gems and the use of local tour guides makes these connections real. I can think of many favorite visits, the Underground in Krakow, the Pope JP2 early life.”
